Tonight on the stand
A candlelit room, one small stage, and a band close enough to hear the reeds breathe.
Tonight
Thu 11 Sep
Ballads and standards, with Miles Okafor on piano.
Doors 7pm · first set 8pm
One band a night, two sets each. Come early for a table close to the stage.
The season
Scroll to move through the coming nights. Each one comes forward as a poster. One seating, two sets, and a room that seats forty.
Hard bop, upright bass and brushes, played quiet and mean.
Ballads and standards, with Miles Okafor on piano.
Voice and piano, close to the bone. A second late set added.
New Orleans second line, six pieces, horns up front.
Sit in with the house rhythm section. Bring your horn.
Hammond, guitar and a heavy, patient groove.
The room, up close
What's on
One band a night, two sets each. Come early for a table close to the stage. Late sessions on Sundays run to midnight.
Tickets
Small room, plain rules. We hold tables by name and take payment at the door. No accounts, no booking fees, no seat map to fight with.
The venue
We opened Vestry in a former chapel hall, kept the old plaster and the good acoustics, and put the stage where no one sits far away. A short plate, a proper cocktail, and let the set carry the night.
Tell us the night and how many. We will hold a table and have it ready when you arrive. It is a small room, so the good seats go early in the week.
By email or phone. No accounts, no fees, no seat map.
